This study proposes a novel method for in-service evaluation of force in an external prestressing 7-wire tendon which is employed for retrofitting bridge superstructure. For this propose, a smart strand 7.0m long whose king wire is replaced by a steel tube and the FBG sensor, is developed. Performance of the strand is demonstrated through loading-unloading tests for a RC T-shaped beam 6.4m long. Finally, a couple of test results are presented to discuss effect of temperature change in the FBG sensor.

To evaluate the structural integrity of the NPP containment building more rigorously, the effective prestress, which is one of the most affecting elements, needs to be estimated exactly. This paper presents the results of an experimental study to determine the effective prestress force in prestressed concrete beams. It is possible to improve the effective prestress measuring method by test beam, which is being applied for the investigation of the nuclear power plant in operation. If experimentally evaluated Lift-Off method in this study can be coupled with test beam test currently being used in in-service nuclear power plant, it is possible to measure prestress loss of the tendon and the level of the effective prestress load.

Due to deterioration of bridge, usually be using the external prestressing method among repair reinforcement method. But, there is much to be desired about a detailed account, almost it has analysed by cambers of girders, deflections of middle span and upper, bottom stresses of girders. Also, it is not examined closely that effect of internal prestress by external prestressing. The purpose of this study is confirmed the effect of internal tendons by external prestressing, estimation of additional external prestressing force and look for exact external prestressing force.

There has been a strong demand on more economic and lower depth girder bridges for short and medium span range, PRECOM, which is a new type steel-concrete composite girder, has been developed to realize a more economic bridge system with a lower depth girder. In the PRECOM girder bridge, a steel plate girder is simply supported and then concrete form is hung to girder. Thus, the self-weight of the concrete is loaded to the steel girder. To increase the resistance of concrete in the lower casing against tensile stress, compressive force is introduced by prestressed tendon To evaluate the manufacturability and performances of the completed bridge, four 15-m girders and a bridge specimen with two 20m girders wvere constructed. The camber during the construction and introduction of an appropriate compressive force was evaluated. Dynamic data were obtained through the modal testing of the completed girders. Static loading test was also conducted to examine cracks and evaluate the decrease in stiffness and failure behavior under extreme conditions.

The major objectives of this study are to investigate experimental and analytical behavior of composite steel plate strengthened by external post prestressing method and to study the increasing magnitude of load carrying capacity by the external post prestressing method. With installed strain gauges and LVDT, the change of structural behaviors according to the amount of prestressing force is measured and the effects of shear strengthening according to the degree of angle in tendon are studied. The analytical structural behavior according to the amount of prestressing force is also investigated using finite element method. The effectiveness of strengthening of external post prestressing method is proved and an efficient FEM model is suggested by comparing the test results and analyzing results.

The purpose of this study is (a) to estimate effective moment arms of quadriceps forces and (b) to compare the $d_e$ between the ACL-reconstructed and uninjured knees from the same individual. One female (20 yrs old, 2 yrs post-op, hamstring tendon autograft) and two males (22 yrs old, 2 yrs post-op; 28 yrs old, 4 yrs post-op; Patellar tendon autografts for both). Sagittal view radiographs were obtained for 6-7 different angles $(range\;5^{\circ}-110^{\circ})$ from each knee. The do was determined by the method of Chow et al. (1999a). The results showed that the maximum de values ranged from 4.61 to 5.59cm and 4.59 to 4.89cm for the ACL-reconstructed and uninjured knees, respectively. The maximum $d_e$ occurred between $35^{\circ}\;and\;50^{\circ}\;and\;20^{\circ}\;and\;50^{\circ}$ for the ACL-reconstructed and uninjured knees, respectively. The minimum do values ranged from 4.12 to 4.35 cm and 3.12 to 3.63cm for the ACL-reconstructed and uninjured knees, respectively. The effective moment arm of the knee extensor affects the loads on knee ligaments during knee-extension exercises. Because apparent differences in the moment arm of the quadriceps in different participants, it is very important to use personalized knee joint geometry for the computation of knee joint force. In the present study, no noticeable bilateral difference was found in the male subjects. However, apparent bilateral differences in de were observed in the female subject. This suggests that the effects of ACL reconstruction surgery on patellar mechanism deserve further investigation.

본 연구에서는 프리스트레스 긴장력의 위치와 크기에 따른 거더의 횡비틀림 안정성 실험을 수행하였다. 거더를 이용한 횡방향 거동 및 안정성 실험은 재료의 비선형성, 초기 기하학적 불완전성, 긴장력의 변화, 하중조건과 지지조건 등 다양한 변수에 의해 예상치 못한 결과를 발생시킬 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 프리스트레스 거더 축소 모형 실험안을 제안하여 긴장력에 의한 횡비틀림 안정성을 실험을 수행하였다. 하중 가력조건과 면내 및 면외 지지조건을 만족하며 긴장력을 조절할 수 있는 실험장치를 제안하고 제작하였다. 실험결과 하부 플랜지에 긴장력이 작용하는 경우 횡비틀림 안정성을 증가시켰으며, 최종적으로 긴장력의 위치와 크기에 따라 횡비틀림 안정성을 평가할 수 있는 해석식을 제안하였다.

Computational multibody models of the elbow can provide a versatile tool to study joint mechanics, cartilage loading, ligament function and the effects of joint trauma and orthopaedic repair. An efficiently developed computational model can assist surgeons and other investigators in the design and evaluation of treatments for elbow injuries, and contribute to improvements in patient care. The purpose of this study was to develop an anatomically correct elbow joint model and validate the model against experimental data. The elbow model was constrained by multiple bundles of non-linear ligaments, three-dimensional deformable contacts between articulating geometries, and applied external loads. The developed anatomical computational models of the joint can then be incorporated into neuro-musculoskeletal models within a multibody framework. In the approach presented here, volume images of two cadaver elbows were generated by computed tomography (CT) and one elbow by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to construct the three-dimensional bone geometries for the model. The ligaments and triceps tendon were represented with non-linear spring-damper elements as a function of stiffness, ligament length and ligament zero-load length. Articular cartilage was represented as uniform thickness solids that allowed prediction of compliant contact forces. As a final step, the subject specific model was validated by comparing predicted kinematics and triceps tendon forces to experimentally obtained data of the identically loaded cadaver elbow. The maximum root mean square (RMS) error between the predicted and measured kinematics during the complete testing cycle was 4.9 mm medial-lateral translational of the radius relative to the humerus (for Specimen 2 in this study) and 5.30 internal-external rotation of the radius relative to the humerus (for Specimen 3 in this study). The maximum RMS error for triceps tendon force was 7.6 N (for Specimen 3).
